Hi,

I have two branch in one repo that I need to maintain for 2 different deliveries. Say branch1 and branch2 in test.git repo.

test.git
- branch1
     foo_v1/text.txt
     foo_v2/text.txt
- branch2
     foo/text.txt

branch1 is developers branch all source looks version'ed manner and branch2 is superset for branch1, example foo_v1 and foo_v2 are the directories in branch1 where developer will update the latest one here foo_v2 and branch2 foo is same as the latest one of branch1 for an instance.

Suppose developer send 10 patches on branch1 where are changes in terms of <dir>_<version>/ then I need to apply on my local repo branch1, till now is fine then I need to apply same 10 patches on to my branch2 where source tree <dir> which is quite question here how can I do.

Request for any help! let me know for any questions.
thanks!
